    A New Way to Invest in Agriculture

    Introducing the first simple, low-cost agriculture investment platform

    New Opportunities

    Historically, agricultural investments like cattle have only been accessible to investors with significant capital, vast industry expertise, and direct connections to producers. FarmAfield has removed those barriers by:

    Cultivating partnerships with high-performing farmers we trust

    Leveraging technology to bundle smaller purchases into larger investments

    Compiling, analyzing, and sharing industry data that drive higher returns

    Different Assets, Different Results

    When you invest through FarmAfield, you're buying real agricultural assets — commodities that are non-correlated with the stock market info . Why is this important? A diversified portfolio is the cornerstone of any risk management strategy. If an entire portfolio consists of similar assets, a singular market downturn can erase gains made over many years. Non-correlated assets like cattle provide an excellent safety net info during these stock market downturns, helping you to maximize your overall returns.

    Correlation is expressed using a beta value. A beta value of 1.0 between two asset classes indicates that they move in lockstep. A beta of -1.0 indicates they move in opposite directions, and a beta of 0 indicates there is no correlation in their price movement.

    Over the past 20 years, FarmAfield has used cattle-market beta comparisons against the S&P 500 to illustrate low correlation. This comparison is provided for informational purposes, involves assumptions, and is not indicative of future results.

    Competitive Returns

    Since our first offering in March of 2016, 5.2% represents FarmAfield's average raw return and 9.9% represents the average annualized return across realized historical cycles. Past performance is not indicative of future results and all investments involve risk, including loss of principal.

    0.65% represents the five-year trailing APY on the Vanguard Total Bond Market Index Fund (VBMFX).

    5.0% represents the current APY for a 9-month high yield CD from Marcus by Goldman Sachs.

    5.2% represents the non-annualized average returns on investments in 129 FarmAfield partner cattle lots since March of 2016. The average annualized return is 9.9%; both figures represent historical results only, are not guaranteed, and involve risk, including loss of principal. The average cycle time was 203 calendar days.

    Historical comparison figures are reviewed and refreshed periodically.
